May be a game bug. Does not start on official released version. On Steam there is a beta branch that fixes it. You have to contact support to get a code for this, as it is not allowed to be shared :( Support page

changing character models in player options, graphics freezes completely for a while, then displays static with a flickering box on it and either the kernel panics (from radeonsi) or X restarts after a while. Also some textures are completely black every now and then

After a few minutes of playing the game will lockup the display completely.

Dear Esther

native port from Humble Bundle

Dead Island Definitive Edition

With OpenGL core profile 4.5 and OpenGL version string 3.0, game opens a pop up saying OpenGL has to be 3.3 at least and it detects 3.0. Launching with MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.5 MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=450 fixes it. I tried with override 3.3 and 330 but it didn't work.

Needs more info, more testing

Black screen, never goes beyond that. Has to be kill -9 to get it to close. No error in terminal. Note: Works for me (same hw, same sw)

AMD RX 480, Arch Linux

mesa 17.1 / LLVM 4.0.0

Absolute Drift

Graphic corruption upon launching, multiple squares of horizontal lines. Note: File data.unity3d is missing in the build, can't start the game

Magicka 2

Displays graphical artifacts when doing/taking damage (triangles flashing over the characters, definitely when using fire cone) Note: Works with RX480 using mesa 17.1.5 and LLVM 4.0.1 and rx460 mesa 17.1.6 and llvm 4.0.0

AMD R9 270, Fedora 25

Anomaly Warzone Earth

Not a Mesa but a game / steam bug. Fix described here Might need additional Steam fix described here After those two fixes, the game is working fine.

Lately a game update fixed the requirement of GL_EXT_gpu_shader4. Sadly the game still crashes with "Out of Memory" errors. It is unknown if this is a game or a mesa bug. Workaround: set %command% -dev to the start options and set graphic options to lowest

various cards, all versions are affected

Cossacks 3

Immediately crashes. Note: This game is marked as beta on Linux by the devs and while the game get a little further on Nvidia binary drivers it crashes there too.
